2 Cor. 6:10 Challenge
"With My help you can find precious pleasures I have scattered alongside your path."-Sarah Young
"Sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything."-2 Cor. 6:10
The Bible verse I just put up there is a good mission one for overseas and everyday life here right where we are right now. I made a list of what that verse means to me right now. Here it is:
We maybe be:
-sorrowful
-poor
-have nothing.
But in God we are:
-always rejoicing
-rich
-possessing everything.
As I think of this verse now in my life, I think I might not have the time I want with friends or to do anything extra like that and might be strange hours but I do have everything in the world. I have my passion/mission as my job. Yeah, it does get sorrowful at times but yet I'm always rejoicing because that gives me more children to love on. It also shows me if children can have very little but yet possess everything and always be happy, then what is wrong with us adults today. Where did the simple life go? Yeah, things got more confusing and busy, but that is the world's way of taking us away from God. I challenge whoever reads this to slow down and just spend time with God and see what HE can teach you.
